More than 40 motorcyclists took part Sept. 6 in a memorial ride starting from the 4 Wing Flightline Observation area and finishing in St. Paul. They gathered to remember Ike “Shrek” Blum who died unexpectedly in August. Blum, who drove a yellow trike, was a veteran and worked on the base as a commissionaire.

The Courier News & Publishing welcomes voluntary article and photographic submissions from all members of our military community. We work hard with a limited staff to bring you a good quality newspaper. You can help us by ­following these guidelines when submitting your articles and ­photographs:
*Articles should be sent in Microsoft Word.
*Aim for a word count of 300.
*Please keep bolded characters to a minimum and refrain from using other font styles (italics, underlining, centering, etc.).
*Spell out acronyms on first ­reference and then abbreviate in ­subsequent references.

*Articles must include author’s full name and rank for attribution. Also include a daytime phone number.
*Do not include photos or ­graphics within typed pages. Send them as separate files.
*Photographs may be delivered electronically as ‘jpeg’ or ‘tiff’ files with a resolution of 300 dpi, by hand, or by CR mail. (Please do not send photos embedded in article text!) Indicate photographer’s full name and rank for ­attribution.
